Akash Patel, Amit Nayak · 2022 International Conference on Augmented Intelligence and Sustainable Systems (ICAISS) · 2022
Advanced computing technology like Edge Computing moves the data to the edge of the network for processing and storage. With the advancement of communication technologies such as 5thGeneration (5G) networks, the number of computing devices connected over internet and the data generated by these devices are also increased, which demand for this variation of cloud computing (CC). Edge computing was introduced with the goal to overcomes the limitations of cloud computing such as significant communication overhead and overall communication time in networks with many computing devices that produce and consume huge amounts of data. Moreover, Edge Computing boosts network support for mobility and confidentiality. The article discusses Edge Computing, its architectures and gives brief summary of its concept, core characteristics and challenges.
